Hi Dave, Just yesterday I experienced what seemed to be just the opposi=
te problem-excess fuel. It seems that both the needles were sticking ope=
n, so with engine off and igntion on, fuel was flowing up and out of jet=
s, into the carbs. Could it be there there is obstruction in the fuel =
flow _before_ it reaches the needle valves, causing intermittent restric=
tion, or that the float level might have gone out of adjustment when the=
lids were put back into place. Bob

Listers,
Below is a link to a video I put up on Youtube showing how my TD engine =
is running after just replacing the jet assembly gaskets and the float b=
owl to carb body grommets on each carb. The carbs are MGA 1.5=E2€=9D=
. The car has been modified to MKII specs. The thing is it was running g=
reat without the misfire before I changed the seals that were leaking.I =
centered the jets twice, got a sharp click when dropped, floats getting =
gas, no stuck needles. I did not change the jets or needles that were on=
the car and as I say was running well.Seems like it=E2€™s ru=
nning a bit lean when you give the gas. The jets are down 16 flats from =
the top, 2 full turns plus 4 additional flats. Any and all thoughts appr=
eciated.Cheers,Dave Houser https://youtu.be/HOzMP5CUDuk
